Prescription Types

Single Vision

The simplest form of glasses is the single-vision lens, made to correct the particular eyesight problem with a single prescription.

Bifocals

As we age, especially after 40, most people experience presbyopia—a natural condition that affects close-up vision, making activities like reading or writing more challenging.

Progressives

Progressive glasses are multifocal eyeglasses that provide a smooth transition between multiple vision zones—distance, intermediate, and near—without visible lines. Unlike bifocals or trifocals, progressive lenses offer a more natural visual experience, allowing the wearer to see clearly at all distances by simply adjusting their gaze.

Potential benefits of progressive lenses include:

  • Needing only one pair of glasses to see at multiple distances.
  • Needing to keep track of only one pair of glasses, instead of reading glasses, driving glasses and glasses for using the computer.
  • Providing cosmetic benefits. No one can tell you have progressive lenses. This might be an important factor for children and younger people who feel embarrassed to wear bifocals or trifocals.
  • Reducing eye strain. No image jumps. Image jumps happen abruptly when your vision crosses the lines in bifocals and trifocals.

Progressive lenses always meet your unique vision needs.

They're designed to correct even the most specific requirements and can be tailored for special purposes, such as:

  • Computer Progressive Lenses
    Perfect for professionals spending 4+ hours daily on computers. Also known as "near variable focus lenses," these are ideal for indoor digital work.
  • Premium Progressive Lenses
    Custom-crafted lenses that account for your unique vision needs, including which eye is dominant, offering unparalleled clarity.
  • Ground-View Progressive Lenses
    Designed for those who frequently look downward, like golfers, providing an optimized view of the ground.
  • Standard Progressive Lenses
    A more affordable option for general use, though less customized and not tailored to fit your face or eye distance.
  • Short Corridor Progressive Lenses
    Ideal for smaller frames, offering compact viewing areas while maintaining functionality.
  • Transition Progressive Lenses
    Lenses that automatically adjust to sunlight by darkening under UV rays, combining convenience with eye protection.

Risks or complications of progressive Lense

  • Fewer choices in lens shapes and sizes. Progressive lenses need to have the prescriptions in very small and accurate spaces.
  • Blurred peripheral vision. Peripheral vision refers to everything you can see that's not straight ahead.
